1337

At Researching Reform we don’t often mention personal landmarks or online milestones, but when we received a notification in the early hours of this morning that our site had reached 1337 likes, we were curious about the significance of what seemed at first like a random number.

So Leet, or 1337 is actually an abbreviation for eleet or 31337, which derives from, yes, you guessed it, the word elite. The idea then, is that once you hit 1337 likes on a WordPress blog you’ve joined a club of sorts.

We are sure many of you who read this blog and have blogs of your own will have reached this milestone also, so please do drop by and let us know and we’ll look forward to cheering you on.

All that’s left for us to do now is thank those of you who liked our posts enough to get us here. So thank you for supporting the blog and we hope we continue to offer you interesting content.

Wish I could say I contributed to the “like” level but I haven’t! Why? It’s not because I don’t like the articles, I do, very much so but because when you hit “like” it introduces you to boxes to fill out and I’m too lazy! Sorry Natasha!

Hi Natasha, Are we talking about the same thing?
The little box at the end of your articles with a blue star and the word like ?
If I press that box, a WordPress page comes up with boxes for email address and password (which I can never remember) to be entered. Puts me off! If you could just press it and it would register a “like” I would do it. Maybe it’s a glitch with my set up???
